I am so excited to introduce this super cute little guy!  I just love watching this family grow!  Jace is going to have lots of fun with his big brother!  It took us quite some time to get this guy to sleep for us.  Luckily, Super Grandma had all the tricks!

Little miss Abigail is a month old now and made her first appearance as a sleepy little princess.  Her big brother, Blake, would not sleep for us when we did his baby photos so this is a big deal for Mom.  What a beautiful little thing!  I am so excited to watch her grow and join her big brother as one of my favorite little people!

Anderson is the sweetest, most smiley boy!  He loves his Mom and his Dad and the ceiling fan – I guess I haven’t taken enough time to sit and look at a ceiling fan, it is rather interesting, and Anderson really enjoys watching it.  He is curious.  He is interested in books, and blocks, his stuffed elephant, and the look on his face when he walks with his special cart is positively priceless.  He is a happy little boy.  He just melts my heart.

Anderson has been diagnosed with Hurler Syndrome.  With this syndrome, which has a 1 per 100,000 occurrence, he cannot make a type of enzyme that helps to break down specific sugar molecules throughout his little body; which causes issues with his joints, organs, and a handful of other things.  Right now he wears hearing aids, although he really doesn’t like Daddy putting them in.  He will begin a treatment process soon, that may consist of enzyme replacement and maybe even a bone marrow transplant.  This little guy and his parents have a long road ahead of them.  I so hope that they find the right doctor to make Anderson’s life long, happy, and prosperous!

Just look at that grin!

I was so happy to spend a few hours with my favorite little buddy, James, and his awesome Momma.  James has no idea of the changes that will come over the next few months.  As much as he is an adventurous, comical, sweet and caring, only child, he will soon be called “big brother.”  So we took some time to look at life with just James.  This kid absolutely cracks me up!  “Play” and “Nope” are his favorite two words.  I am so excited for #2 to join this household!
